Outfit Post: Beamish

It wouldn't be a Bank Holiday without a trip to Beamish!
Well that might not be true for everyone but it is to me.
So I bet you can guess where I went last Bank Holiday Monday... that's right Beamish.

I decided to dig deep in my draws (get your minds out the gutter!) and pull out some old items I haven't worn in a long time and this is what I came up with.
Top - H&M
Belt - Off a Lindy Bop Dress
Skirt - eBay
Petticoat - eBay

I chose neutral coloured makeup with a small beehive hairdo. This is the day I sprayed perfume in my eye, hence the watery look.
Sadly I don't have a picture of my whole outfit where my hair isn't in my face so you'll just have to put with with only seeing half my beauty :p

Till next time folks,

Sheffield: What I wore day 3

The last day of out trip was a sad one as it signified the return to the gray North and the return to work... but I did wear a cute outfit so it wasn't all that bad :p
Cardigan - H&M
Top - Primark
Skirt - Primark
I wore flip flops on my feet because after two days of wearing naff shoes I had the most enormous blisters  on my little toes... I still have the scars.

This guy didn't look too bad either, in fact he looked pretty damn fine.

On our way home we stopped at Hardwick Hall, as ever with the National Trust no photos could be taken inside but I did get plenty outside.
Take a look...
With this big old tree outside it reminded me a little of Downton Abbey.
Till next time folks,

Sheffield: What I Wore Day 2

On the second day of our trip we took a wonder into the town center.
Once again the hot sun was out and it was a beautiful day...I chose to wear a petticoat, a decision I later came to regret. Boy was I warm!
Here's what I wore
Petticoat - eBay
Shoes - Primark
I have to say out of all the Lindy bop dresses I won this one is my most favourite.
I couldn't go anywhere in it without some one stopping me to compliment it or without hearing some one say something about it was I walked past.
The best thing is that Lindy Bop not have it in 2 other colours... guess what I'm getting!
Once again I couldn't be bothered to sit and pin curl properly so a quick curl was all the hair got.
Excuse the mess, it's the misters, my side was spick and span(ish)
Check out my sunburn.
I was lobster red in that area for a few days, lesson learned!

Till next time folks,
